  • October 10, 2011 15:10 frs Sheet number 5 Page number v cyan magenta yellow black About HOWARD ANTON Howard Anton obtained his B.A. from Lehigh University, his M.A. from the University of Illinois, and his Ph.D. from the Polytechnic University of Brooklyn, all in mathematics. In the early 1960s he worked for Burroughs Corporation and Avco Corporation at Cape Canaveral, Florida, where he was involved with the manned space program. In 1968 he joined the Mathematics Department at Drexel University, where he taught full time until 1983. Since that time he has been an Emeritus Professor at Drexel and has devoted the majority of his time to textbook writing and activities for mathematical associations. Dr. Anton was president of the EPADEL section of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA), served on the Board of Governors of that organization, and guided the creation of the student chapters of the MAA. He has published numerous research papers in functional analysis, approximation theory, and topology, as well as pedagogical papers. He is best known for his textbooks in mathematics, which are among the most widely used in the world. There are currently more than one hundred versions of his books, including translations into Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian, French, Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew, and German. His textbook in linear algebra has won both the Textbook Excellence Award and the McGuffey Award from the Textbook Authors Association. For relaxation, Dr. Anton enjoys traveling and photography. About IRL BIVENS Irl C. Bivens, recipient of the George Polya Award and the Merten M. Hasse Prize for Expository Writing in Mathematics, received his A.B. from Pfeiffer College and his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, both in mathematics. Since 1982, he has taught at Davidson College, where he currently holds the position of professor of mathematics. A typical academic year sees him teaching courses in calculus, topology, and geometry. Dr. Bivens also enjoys mathematical history, and his annual History of Mathematics seminar is a perennial favorite with Davidson mathematics majors. He has published numerous articles on undergraduate mathematics, as well as research papers in his specialty, differential geometry. He has served on the editorial boards of the MAA Problem Book series, the MAA Dolciani Mathematical Expositions series and The College Mathematics Journal. When he is not pursuing mathematics, Professor Bivens enjoys reading, juggling, swimming, and walking. About STEPHEN DAVIS Stephen L. Davis received his B.A. from Lindenwood College and his Ph.D. from Rutgers University in mathematics. Having previously taught at Rutgers University and Ohio State University, Dr. Davis came to Davidson College in 1981, where he is currently a professor of mathematics. He regularly teaches calculus, linear algebra, abstract algebra, and computer science. A sabbatical in 19951996 took him to Swarthmore College as a visiting associate professor. Professor Davis has published numerous articles on calculus reform and testing, as well as research papers on nite group theory, his specialty. Professor Davis has held several ofces in the Southeastern section of the MAA, including chair and secretary-treasurer and has served on the MAA Board of Governors. He is currently a faculty consultant for the Educational Testing Service for the grading of the Advanced Placement Calculus Exam, webmaster for the North Carolina Association of Advanced Placement Mathematics Teachers, and is actively involved in nurturing mathematically talented high school students through leadership in the Charlotte Mathematics Club. For relaxation, he plays basketball, juggles, and travels. Professor Davis and his wife Elisabeth have three children, Laura, Anne, and James, all former calculus students.

  • September 30, 2011 17:46 fpref Sheet number 1 Page number vii cyan magenta yellow black PREFACE This tenth edition of Calculus maintains those aspects of previous editions that have led to the series successwe continue to strive for student comprehension without sacricing mathematical accuracy, and the exercise sets are carefully constructed to avoid unhappy surprises that can derail a calculus class. All of the changes to the tenth edition were carefully reviewed by outstanding teachers comprised of both users and nonusers of the previous edition. The charge of this committee was to ensure that all changes did not alter those aspects of the text that attracted users of the ninth edition and at the same time provide freshness to the new edition that would attract new users. NEW TO THIS EDITION Exercise sets have been modied to correspond more closely to questions in WileyPLUS. In addition, more WileyPLUS questions now correspond to specic exercises in the text. New applied exercises have been added to the book and existing applied exercises have been updated. Where appropriate, additional skill/practice exercises were added. OTHER FEATURES Flexibility Thiseditionhasabuilt-inexibilitythatisdesignedtoserveabroadspectrum of calculus philosophiesfrom traditional to reform. Technology can be emphasized or not, and the order of many topics can be permuted freely to accommodate each instructors specic needs. Rigor The challenge of writing a good calculus book is to strike the right balance between rigor and clarity. Our goal is to present precise mathematics to the fullest extent possible in an introductory treatment. Where clarity and rigor conict, we choose clarity; however, we believe it to be important that the student understand the difference between a careful proof and an informal argument, so we have informed the reader when the arguments being presented are informal or motivational. Theory involving - arguments appears in separate sections so that they can be covered or not, as preferred by the instructor. Rule of Four The rule of four refers to presenting concepts from the verbal, algebraic, visual, and numerical points of view. In keeping with current pedagogical philosophy, we used this approach whenever appropriate. Visualization This edition makes extensive use of modern computer graphics to clarify concepts and to develop the students ability to visualize mathematical objects, particularly those in 3-space. For those students who are working with graphing technology, there are vii
  • September 30, 2011 17:46 fpref Sheet number 2 Page number viii cyan magenta yellow black viii Preface many exercises that are designed to develop the students ability to generate and analyze mathematical curves and surfaces. Quick Check Exercises Each exercise set begins with approximately ve exercises (answers included) that are designed to provide students with an immediate assessment of whether they have mastered key ideas from the section. They require a minimum of computation and are answered by lling in the blanks. Focus on Concepts Exercises Each exercise set contains a clearly identied group of problems that focus on the main ideas of the section. Technology Exercises Most sections include exercises that are designed to be solved using either a graphing calculator or a computer algebra system such as Mathematica, Maple, or the open source program Sage. These exercises are marked with an icon for easy identication. Applicability of Calculus One of the primary goals of this text is to link calculus to the real world and the students own experience. This theme is carried through in the examples and exercises. Career Preparation This text is written at a mathematical level that will prepare stu- dents for a wide variety of careers that require a sound mathematics background, including engineering, the various sciences, and business. Trigonometry Review Deciencies in trigonometry plague many students, so we have included a substantial trigonometry review in Appendix B. Appendix on Polynomial Equations Because many calculus students are weak in solving polynomial equations, we have included an appendix (Appendix C) that reviews the Factor Theorem, the Remainder Theorem, and procedures for nding rational roots. Principles of Integral Evaluation The traditional Techniques of Integration is entitled Principles of Integral Evaluation to reect its more modern approach to the material. The chapter emphasizes general methods and the role of technology rather than specic tricks for evaluating complicated or obscure integrals. Historical Notes The biographies and historical notes have been a hallmark of this text from its rst edition and have been maintained. All of the biographical materials have been distilled from standard sources with the goal of capturing and bringing to life for the student the personalities of historys greatest mathematicians. Margin Notes and Warnings These appear in the margins throughout the text to clarify or expand on the text exposition or to alert the reader to some pitfall.

  • October 15, 2011 13:47 ast Sheet number 1 Page number xviii cyan magenta yellow black xviii The Roots of Calculus THE ROOTS OF CALCULUS Todays exciting applications of calculus have roots that can be traced to the work of the Greek mathematicianArchimedes, but the actual discovery of the fundamental principles of cal- culus was made independently by Isaac Newton (English) and Gottfried Leibniz (German) in the late seventeenth century. The work of Newton and Leibniz was motivated by four major classes of scientic and mathematical problems of the time: Find the tangent line to a general curve at a given point. Find the area of a general region, the length of a general curve, and the volume of a general solid. Find the maximum or minimum value of a quantityfor example, the maximum and minimum distances of a planet from the Sun, or the maximum range attainable for a pro- jectile by varying its angle of re. Given a formula for the distance traveled by a body in any specied amount of time, nd the velocity and acceleration of the body at any instant. Conversely, given a formula that species the acceleration of velocity at any instant, nd the distance traveled by the body in a specied period of time. Newton and Leibniz found a fundamental relationship be- tween the problem of nding a tangent line to a curve and the problem of determining the area of a region. Their real- ization of this connection is considered to be the discovery of calculus. Though Newton saw how these two problems are related ten years before Leibniz did, Leibniz published his work twenty years before Newton. This situation led to a stormy debate over who was the rightful discoverer of calculus. The debate engulfed Europe for half a century, with the scien- tists of the European continent supporting Leibniz and those from England supporting Newton. The conict was extremely unfortunate because Newtons inferior notation badly ham- pered scientic development in England, and the Continent in turn lost the benet of Newtons discoveries in astronomy and physics for nearly fty years. In spite of it all, Newton and Leibniz were sincere admirers of each others work. [Image: Public domain image from http://commons.wikimedia.org/ wiki/File:Hw-newton.jpg. Image provided courtesy of the University of Texas Libraries, The University of Texas at Austin.] ISAAC NEWTON (16421727) Newton was born in the village of Woolsthorpe, England. His father died before he was born and his mother raised him on the family farm. As a youth he showed little evidence of his later brilliance, except for an unusual talent with mechanical deviceshe apparently built a working water clock and a toy our mill powered by a mouse. In 1661 he entered Trinity College in Cambridge with a deciency in geometry. Fortunately, Newton caught the eye of Isaac Barrow, a gifted mathematician and teacher. Under Barrows guidance Newton immersed himself in mathematics and science, but he graduated without any special distinction. Because the bubonic plague was spreading rapidly through London, Newton returned to his home in Woolsthorpe and stayed there during the years of 1665 and 1666. In those two momentous years the entire framework of modern science was miraculously created in Newtons mind. He discovered calculus, recognized the underlying principles of planetary motion and gravity, and determined that white sunlight was composed of all colors, red to violet. For whatever reasons he kept his discoveries to himself. In 1667 he returned to Cambridge to obtain his Masters degree and upon graduation became a teacher at Trinity. Then in 1669 Newton succeeded his teacher, Isaac Barrow, to the Lucasian chair of mathematics at Trinity, one of the most honored chairs of mathematics in the world. Thereafter, brilliantdiscoveriesowedfromNewtonsteadily. Heformulated the law of gravitation and used it to explain the motion of the moon, the planets, and the tides; he formulated basic theories of light, thermodynamics, and hydrodynamics; and he devised and constructed the rst modern reecting telescope. Throughout his life Newton was hesitant to publish his major discoveries, revealing them only to a select

  • October 28, 2011 17:19 for-the-student Sheet number 1 Page number ii cyan magenta yellow black FOR THE STUDENT Calculus provides a way of viewing and analyzing the physi- cal world. As with all mathematics courses, calculus involves equations and formulas. However, if you successfully learn to use all the formulas and solve all of the problems in the text but do not master the underlying ideas, you will have missed the most important part of calculus. If you master these ideas, you will have a widely applicable tool that goes far beyond textbook exercises. Before starting your studies, you may nd it helpful to leaf through this text to get a general feeling for its different parts: The opening page of each chapter gives you an overview of what that chapter is about, and the opening page of each section within a chapter gives you an overview of what that section is about. To help you locate specic information, sections are subdivided into topics that are marked with a box like this . Each section ends with a set of exercises. The answers to most odd-numbered exercises appear in the back of the book. If you nd that your answer to an exercise does not match that in the back of the book, do not assume immedi- ately that yours is incorrectthere may be more than one way to express the answer. For example, if your answer is 2/2 and the text answer is 1/ 2 , then both are correct since your answer can be obtained by rationalizing the text answer. In general, if your answer does not match that in the text, then your best rst step is to look for an algebraic manipulation or a trigonometric identity that might help you determine if the two answers are equivalent. If the answer is in the form of a decimal approximation, then your answer might differ from that in the text because of a difference in the number of decimal places used in the computations. The section exercises include regular exercises and four special categories: Quick Check, Focus on Concepts, True/False, and Writing. TheQuickCheck exercisesareintendedtogiveyouquick feedback on whether you understand the key ideas in the section; they involve relatively little computation, and have answers provided at the end of the exercise set. The Focus on Concepts exercises, as their name suggests, key in on the main ideas in the section. True/False exercises focus on key ideas in a different way. You must decide whether the statement is true in all possible circumstances, in which case you would declare it to be true, or whether there are some circumstances in which it is not true, in which case you would declare it to be false. In each such exercise you are asked to Explain your answer. You might do this by noting a theorem in the text that shows the statement to be true or by nding a particular example in which the statement is not true. Writing exercises are intended to test your ability to ex- plain mathematical ideas in words rather than relying solely on numbers and symbols. All exercises requiring writing should be answered in complete, correctly punc- tuated logical sentencesnot with fragmented phrases and formulas. Each chapter ends with two additional sets of exercises: Chapter Review Exercises, which, as the name suggests, is a select set of exercises that provide a review of the main concepts and techniques in the chapter, and Making Con- nections, in which exercises require you to draw on and combine various ideas developed throughout the chapter. Your instructor may choose to incorporate technology in your calculus course. Exercises whose solution involves the use of some kind of technology are tagged with icons to alert you and your instructor. Those exercises tagged with the icon require graphing technologyeither a graphing calculator or a computer program that can graph equations. Those exercises tagged with the icon C require a com- puter algebra system (CAS) such as Mathematica, Maple, or available on some graphing calculators. At the end of the text you will nd a set of four appen- dices covering various topics such as a detailed review of trigonometry and graphing techniques using technology. Inside the front and back covers of the text you will nd endpapers that contain useful formulas. The ideas in this text were created by real people with in- teresting personalities and backgrounds. Pictures and bio- graphical sketches of many of these people appear through- out the book. Notes in the margin are intended to clarify or comment on important points in the text. A Word of Encouragement As you work your way through this text you will nd some ideas that you understand immediately, some that you dont understand until you have read them several times, and others that you do not seem to understand, even after several readings. Do not become discouragedsome ideas are intrinsically dif- cult and take time to percolate. You may well nd that a hard idea becomes clear later when you least expect it.

  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 1 Page number 1 cyan magenta yellow black 1 Arco Images/Alamy 0 The development of calculus in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries was motivated by the need to understand physical phenomena such as the tides, the phases of the moon, the nature of light, and gravity. One of the important themes in calculus is the analysis of relationships between physical or mathematical quantities. Such relationships can be described in terms of graphs, formulas, numerical data, or words. In this chapter we will develop the concept of a function, which is the basic idea that underlies almost all mathematical and physical relationships, regardless of the form in which they are expressed. We will study properties of some of the most basic functions that occur in calculus, including polynomials, trigonometric functions, inverse trigonometric functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions. BEFORE CALCULUS 0.1 FUNCTIONS In this section we will dene and develop the concept of a function, which is the basic mathematical object that scientists and mathematicians use to describe relationships between variable quantities. Functions play a central role in calculus and its applications. DEFINITION OF A FUNCTION Many scientic laws and engineering principles describe how one quantity depends on another. This idea was formalized in 1673 by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (see p. xx) who coined the term function to indicate the dependence of one quantity on another, as described in the following denition. 0.1.1 denition If a variable y depends on a variable x in such a way that each value of x determines exactly one value of y, then we say that y is a function of x. Four common methods for representing functions are: Numerically by tables Geometrically by graphs Algebraically by formulas Verbally
  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 2 Page number 2 cyan magenta yellow black 2 Chapter 0 / Before Calculus The method of representation often depends on how the function arises. For example: Table 0.1.1 shows the top qualifying speed S for the Indianapolis 500 auto race as a Table 0.1.1 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 228.011 231.604 233.100 218.263 223.503 225.179 223.471 226.037 231.342 231.725 222.024 227.598 228.985 225.817 226.366 224.864 227.970 227.472 year t speed S (mi/h) indianapolis 500 qualifying speeds function of the year t. There is exactly one value of S for each value of t. Figure 0.1.1 is a graphical record of an earthquake recorded on a seismograph. The graph describes the deection D of the seismograph needle as a function of the time T elapsed since the wave left the earthquakes epicenter. There is exactly one value of D for each value of T . Some of the most familiar functions arise from formulas; for example, the formula C = 2r expresses the circumference C of a circle as a function of its radius r. There is exactly one value of C for each value of r. Sometimes functions are described in words. For example, Isaac Newtons Law of Universal Gravitation is often stated as follows: The gravitational force of attraction between two bodies in the Universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This is the verbal description of the formula F = G m1m2 r2 in which F is the force of attraction, m1 and m2 are the masses, r is the distance be- tween them, and G is a constant. If the masses are constant, then the verbal description denes F as a function of r. There is exactly one value of F for each value of r. T D 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 Time in minutes Time of earthquake shock Arrival of P-waves Arrival of S-waves 11.8 minutes 9.4 minutes Surface waves Figure 0.1.1 In the mid-eighteenth century the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler (pronounced oiler) conceived the idea of denoting functions by letters of the alphabet, thereby making it possible to refer to functions without stating specic formulas, graphs, or tables. To understand Eulers idea, think of a function as a computer program that takes an input x, operates on it in some way, and produces exactly one output y. The computer program is an object in its own right, so we can give it a name, say f . Thus, the function f (the computer program) associates a unique output y with each input x (Figure 0.1.2). This suggests the Input x Output y Computer Program f Figure 0.1.2 following denition. 0.1.2 denition A function f is a rule that associates a unique output with each input. If the input is denoted by x, then the output is denoted by f (x) (read f of x). In this denition the term unique means exactly one. Thus, a function cannot assign two different outputs to the same input. For example, Figure 0.1.3 shows a plot of weight WeightW(pounds) Age A (years) 10 15 20 25 30 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 Figure 0.1.3 versus age for a random sample of 100 college students. This plot does not describe W as a function of A because there are some values of A with more than one corresponding

INDEPENDENT AND DEPENDENT VARIABLES For a given input x, the output of a function f is called the value of f at x or the image of x under f . Sometimes we will want to denote the output by a single letter, say y, and write y = f(x) This equation expresses y as a function of x; the variable x is called the independent variable (or argument) of f , and the variable y is called the dependent variable of f . This terminology is intended to suggest that x is free to vary, but that once x has a specic value a corresponding value of y is determined. For now we will only consider functions in which the independent and dependent variables are real numbers, in which case we say that f is a real-valued function of a real variable. Later, we will consider other kinds of functions. Example 1 Table 0.1.2 describes a functional relationship y = f (x) for whichTable 0.1.2 0 3 x y 3 6 1 4 2 1 f(0) = 3 f associates y = 3 with x = 0. f(1) = 4 f associates y = 4 with x = 1. f(2) = 1 f associates y = 1 with x = 2. f(3) = 6 f associates y = 6 with x = 3. Example 2 The equation y = 3x2 4x + 2 has the form y = f(x) in which the function f is given by the formula f(x) = 3x2 4x + 2 Leonhard Euler (17071783) Euler was probably the most prolic mathematician who ever lived. It has been said that Euler wrote mathematics as effortlessly as most men breathe. He was born in Basel, Switzerland, and was the son of a Protestant minister who had himself studied mathematics. Eulers genius developed early. He attended the University of Basel, where by age 16 he obtained both a Bachelor ofArts degree and a Masters degree in philosophy. While at Basel, Euler had the good fortune to be tutored one day a week in mathematics by a distinguished mathematician, Johann Bernoulli. At the urging of his father, Euler then began to study theology. The lure of mathematics was too great, however, and by age 18 Euler had begun to do mathematical research. Nevertheless, the inuence of his father and his theological studies remained, and throughout his life Euler was a deeply religious, unaffected person. At various times Euler taught at St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences (in Rus- sia), the University of Basel, and the Berlin Academy of Sciences. Eulers energy and capacity for work were virtually boundless. His collected works form more than 100 quarto-sized volumes and it is believed that much of his work has been lost. What is particularly astonishing is that Euler was blind for the last 17 years of his life, and this was one of his most productive periods! Eulers awless memory was phenomenal. Early in his life he memorized the entire Aeneid by Virgil, and at age 70 he could not only recite the entire work but could also state the rst and last sentence on each page of the book from which he memorized the work. His ability to solve problems in his head was beyond belief. He worked out in his head major problems of lunar motion that bafed Isaac Newton and once did a complicated calculation in his head to settle an argument between two students whose computations differed in the ftieth decimal place. Following the development of calculus by Leibniz and Newton, results in mathematics developed rapidly in a disorganized way. Eu- lers genius gave coherence to the mathematical landscape. He was the rst mathematician to bring the full power of calculus to bear on problems from physics. He made major contributions to virtu- ally every branch of mathematics as well as to the theory of optics, planetary motion, electricity, magnetism, and general mechanics.

  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 4 Page number 4 cyan magenta yellow black 4 Chapter 0 / Before Calculus For each input x, the corresponding output y is obtained by substituting x in this formula. For example, f(0) = 3(0)2 4(0) + 2 = 2 f associates y = 2 with x = 0. f(1.7) = 3(1.7)2 4(1.7) + 2 = 17.47 f associates y = 17.47 with x = 1.7. f( 2 ) = 3( 2 )2 4 2 + 2 = 8 4 2 f associates y = 8 4 2 with x = 2. GRAPHS OF FUNCTIONS If f is a real-valued function of a real variable, then the graph of f in the xy-plane is dened to be the graph of the equation y = f(x). For example, the graph of the function f(x) = x is the graph of the equation y = x, shown in Figure 0.1.4. That gure also shows the graphs of some other basic functions that may already be familiar to you. In Appendix A we discuss techniques for graphing functions using graphing technology. Figure 0.1.4 shows only portions of the graphs. Where appropriate, and unless indicated otherwise, it is understood that graphs shown in this text extend indenitely beyond the boundaries of the displayed gure. 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 x y y = x y = x2 y = x3 y = 1/x 3 2 1 10 2 3 1 1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 x y 8 6 4 2 20 4 6 8 8 6 4 2 2 0 4 6 8 x y 54321 10 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1 1 0 2 3 4 x y y = xy = x 3 8 6 4 2 20 4 6 8 4 3 2 1 1 0 2 3 4 x y 01 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 x y Figure 0.1.4 Since x is imaginary for negative val- ues of x, there are no points on the graph of y = x in the region where x < 0. Graphs can provide valuable visual information about a function. For example, since the graph of a function f in the xy-plane is the graph of the equation y = f(x), the points on the graph of f are of the form (x, f(x)); that is, the y-coordinate of a point on the graph of f is the value of f at the corresponding x-coordinate (Figure 0.1.5). The values of x for which f(x) = 0 are the x-coordinates of the points where the graph of f intersects the x-axis (Figure 0.1.6). These values are called the zeros of f , the roots of f(x) = 0, or the x-intercepts of the graph of y = f(x). x y (x, f(x)) f(x) y = f(x) x Figure 0.1.5 The y-coordinate of a point on the graph of y = f(x) is the value of f at the corresponding x-coordinate. THE VERTICAL LINE TEST Not every curve in the xy-plane is the graph of a function. For example, consider the curve in Figure 0.1.7, which is cut at two distinct points, (a, b) and (a, c), by a vertical line. This curve cannot be the graph of y = f(x) for any function f ; otherwise, we would have f(a) = b and f(a) = c

Example 3 The graph of the equation x2 + y2 = 25 is a circle of radius 5 centered at the origin and hence there are vertical lines that cut the graph more than once (Figure 0.1.8). Thus this equation does not dene y as a function of x. 6 6 6 6 x y x2 + y2 = 25 Figure 0.1.8 THE ABSOLUTE VALUE FUNCTION Recall that the absolute value or magnitude of a real number x is dened by |x| = x, x 0 x, x < 0 The effect of taking the absolute value of a number is to strip away the minus sign if the Symbols such as +x and x are de- ceptive, since it is tempting to conclude that +x is positive and x is negative. However, this need not be so, since x itself can be positive or negative. For example, if x is negative, say x = 3, then x = 3 is positive and +x = 3 is negative. number is negative and to leave the number unchanged if it is nonnegative. Thus, |5| = 5, 4 7 = 4 7 , |0| = 0 A more detailed discussion of the properties of absolute value is given in Web Appendix F. However, for convenience we provide the following summary of its algebraic properties. 0.1.4 properties of absolute value If a and b are real numbers, then (a) |a| = |a| A number and its negative have the same absolute value. (b) |ab| = |a| |b| The absolute value of a product is the product of the absolute values. (c) |a/b| = |a|/|b|, b = 0 The absolute value of a ratio is the ratio of the absolute values. (d) |a + b| |a| + |b| The triangle inequality The graph of the function f(x) = |x| can be obtained by graphing the two parts of the equation y = x, x 0 x, x < 0 separately. Combining the two parts produces the V-shaped graph in Figure 0.1.9. Absolute values have important relationships to square roots. To see why this is so, recall from algebra that every positive real number x has two square roots, one positive and one negative. By denition, the symbol x denotes the positive square root of x. WARNING To denote the negative square root you must write x. For example, the positive square root of 9 is 9 = 3, whereas the negative square root of 9 is 9 = 3. (Do not make the mis- take of writing 9 = 3.) Care must be exercised in simplifying expressions of the form x2, since it is not always true that x2 = x. This equation is correct if x is nonnegative, but it is false if x is negative. For example, if x = 4, then x2 = (4)2 = 16 = 4 = x

PIECEWISE-DEFINED FUNCTIONS The absolute value function f(x) = |x| is an example of a function that is dened piecewise in the sense that the formula for f changes, depending on the value of x. Example 4 Sketch the graph of the function dened piecewise by the formula f(x) = 0, x 1 1 x2, 1 < x < 1 x, x 1 Solution. The formula for f changes at the points x = 1 and x = 1. (We call these the breakpoints for the formula.) A good procedure for graphing functions dened piecewise is to graph the function separately over the open intervals determined by the breakpoints, and then graph f at the breakpoints themselves. For the function f in this example the graph is the horizontal ray y = 0 on the interval (, 1], it is the semicircle y = 1 x2 on the interval (1, 1), and it is the ray y = x on the interval [1, +). The formula for f species that the equation y = 0 applies at the breakpoint 1 [so y = f(1) = 0], and it species that the equation y = x applies at the breakpoint 1 [so y = f(1) = 1]. The graph of f is shown in Figure 0.1.10. x y 12 1 2 1 2 Figure 0.1.10 REMARK In Figure 0.1.10 the solid dot and open circle at the breakpoint x = 1 serve to emphasize that the point on the graph lies on the ray and not the semicircle. There is no ambiguity at the breakpoint x = 1 because the two parts of the graph join together continuously there.

  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 7 Page number 7 cyan magenta yellow black 0.1 Functions 7 DOMAIN AND RANGE If x and y are related by the equation y = f(x), then the set of all allowable inputs (x-values) is called the domain of f , and the set of outputs (y-values) that result when x varies over the domain is called the range of f . For example, if f is the function dened by the table in Example 1, then the domain is the set {0, 1, 2, 3} and the range is the set {1, 3, 4, 6}. Sometimes physical or geometric considerations impose restrictions on the allowable inputs of a function. For example, if y denotes the area of a square of side x, then these variables are related by the equation y = x2 . Although this equation produces a unique value of y for every real number x, the fact that lengths must be nonnegative imposes the requirement that x 0. One might argue that a physical square cannot have a side of length zero. However, it is often convenient mathe- matically to allow zero lengths, and we will do so throughout this text where appropriate. When a function is dened by a mathematical formula, the formula itself may impose restrictions on the allowable inputs. For example, if y = 1/x, then x = 0 is not an allowable input since division by zero is undened, and if y = x, then negative values of x are not allowable inputs because they produce imaginary values for y and we have agreed to consider only real-valued functions of a real variable. In general, we make the following denition. 0.1.5 denition If a real-valued function of a real variable is dened by a formula, and if no domain is stated explicitly, then it is to be understood that the domain consists of all real numbers for which the formula yields a real value. This is called the natural domain of the function. The domain and range of a function f can be pictured by projecting the graph of y = f(x) onto the coordinate axes as shown in Figure 0.1.12. x y y = f(x) Domain Range Figure 0.1.12 The projection of y = f(x) on the x-axis is the set of allowable x-values for f , and the projection on the y-axis is the set of corresponding y-values. Example 6 Find the natural domain of (a) f(x) = x3 (b) f(x) = 1/[(x 1)(x 3)] (c) f(x) = tan x (d) f(x) = x2 5x + 6 Solution (a). The function f has real values for all real x, so its natural domain is the interval (, +). Solution (b). The function f has real values for all real x, except x = 1 and x = 3, where divisions by zero occur. Thus, the natural domain is {x : x = 1 and x = 3} = (, 1) (1, 3) (3, +) Solution (c). Since f(x) = tan x = sin x/ cos x, the function f has real values except where cos x = 0, and this occurs when x is an odd integer multiple of /2. Thus, the natural domain consists of all real numbers except For a review of trigonometry see Ap- pendix B. x = 2 , 3 2 , 5 2 , . . . Solution (d). The function f has real values, except when the expression inside the radical is negative. Thus the natural domain consists of all real numbers x such that x2 5x + 6 = (x 3)(x 2) 0 This inequality is satised if x 2 or x 3 (verify), so the natural domain of f is (, 2] [3, +)
  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 8 Page number 8 cyan magenta yellow black 8 Chapter 0 / Before Calculus In some cases we will state the domain explicitly when dening a function. For example, if f(x) = x2 is the area of a square of side x, then we can write f(x) = x2 , x 0 to indicate that we take the domain of f to be the set of nonnegative real numbers (Fig- ure 0.1.13).x y y = x2 x y y = x2 , x 0 Figure 0.1.13 THE EFFECT OF ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS ON THE DOMAIN Algebraic expressions are frequently simplied by canceling common factors in the nu- merator and denominator. However, care must be exercised when simplifying formulas for functions in this way, since this process can alter the domain. Example 7 The natural domain of the function f(x) = x2 4 x 2 (2) consists of all real x except x = 2. However, if we factor the numerator and then cancel the common factor in the numerator and denominator, we obtain f(x) = (x 2)(x + 2) x 2 = x + 2 (3) Since the right side of (3) has a value of f (2) = 4 and f (2) was undened in (2), the algebraic simplication has changed the function. Geometrically, the graph of (3) is the line in Figure 0.1.14a, whereas the graph of (2) is the same line but with a hole at x = 2, since the function is undened there (Figure 0.1.14b). In short, the geometric effect of the algebraic cancellation is to eliminate the hole in the original graph. 321 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 x y y = x + 2 321 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 x y y = x 2 x2 4 (b) (a) Figure 0.1.14 Sometimesalterationstothedomainofafunctionthatresultfromalgebraicsimplication are irrelevant to the problem at hand and can be ignored. However, if the domain must be preserved, then one must impose the restrictions on the simplied function explicitly. For example, if we wanted to preserve the domain of the function in Example 7, then we would have to express the simplied form of the function as f(x) = x + 2, x = 2 Example 8 Find the domain and range of (a) f(x) = 2 + x 1 (b) f(x) = (x + 1)/(x 1) Solution (a). Since no domain is stated explicitly, the domain of f is its natural domain, [1, +). As x varies over the interval [1, +), the value of x 1 varies over the interval [0, +), so the value of f(x) = 2 + x 1 varies over the interval [2, +), which is the range of f . The domain and range are highlighted in green on the x- and y-axes in Figure 0.1.15. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 y y = 2 + x 1 x Figure 0.1.15 Solution (b). The given function f is dened for all real x, except x = 1, so the natural domain of f is {x : x = 1} = (, 1) (1, +)
  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 9 Page number 9 cyan magenta yellow black 0.1 Functions 9 To determine the range it will be convenient to introduce a dependent variable y = x + 1 x 1 (4) Although the set of possible y-values is not immediately evident from this equation, the graph of (4), which is shown in Figure 0.1.16, suggests that the range of f consists of all y, except y = 1. To see that this is so, we solve (4) for x in terms of y: (x 1)y = x + 1 xy y = x + 1 xy x = y + 1 x(y 1) = y + 1 x = y + 1 y 1 It is now evident from the right side of this equation that y = 1 is not in the range; otherwise we would have a division by zero. No other values of y are excluded by this equation, so the range of the function f is {y : y = 1} = (, 1) (1, +), which agrees with the result obtained graphically. 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 y y = x 1 x + 1 x Figure 0.1.16 DOMAIN AND RANGE IN APPLIED PROBLEMS In applications, physical considerations often impose restrictions on the domain and range of a function. Example 9 An open box is to be made from a 16-inch by 30-inch piece of card- board by cutting out squares of equal size from the four corners and bending up the sides (Figure 0.1.17a). (a) Let V be the volume of the box that results when the squares have sides of length x. Find a formula for V as a function of x. (b) Find the domain of V . (c) Use the graph of V given in Figure 0.1.17c to estimate the range of V . (d) Describe in words what the graph tells you about the volume. Solution (a). As shown in Figure 0.1.17b, the resulting box has dimensions 16 2x by 30 2x by x, so the volume V (x) is given by V (x) = (16 2x)(30 2x)x = 480x 92x2 + 4x3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 VolumeVofbox(in3 ) Side x of square cut (in) x x x x x x x x 16 in 30 in 16 2x 30 2x x (c)(b)(a) Figure 0.1.17
  • August 31, 2011 19:31 C00 Sheet number 10 Page number 10 cyan magenta yellow black 10 Chapter 0 / Before Calculus Solution (b). The domain is the set of x-values and the range is the set of V -values. Because x is a length, it must be nonnegative, and because we cannot cut out squares whose sides are more than 8 in long (why?), the x-values in the domain must satisfy 0 x 8 Solution (c). From the graph of V versus x in Figure 0.1.17c we estimate that the V - values in the range satisfy 0 V 725 Note that this is an approximation. Later we will show how to nd the range exactly. Solution (d). The graph tells us that the box of maximum volume occurs for a value of x that is between 3 and 4 and that the maximum volume is approximately 725 in3 . The graph also shows that the volume decreases toward zero as x gets closer to 0 or 8, which should make sense to you intuitively. In applications involving time, formulas for functions are often expressed in terms of a variable t whose starting value is taken to be t = 0. Example 10 At 8:05 A.M. a car is clocked at 100 ft/s by a radar detector that is positioned at the edge of a straight highway. Assuming that the car maintains a constant speed between 8:05 A.M. and 8:06 A.M., nd a function D(t) that expresses the distance traveled by the car during that time interval as a function of the time t. Solution. It would be clumsy to use the actual clock time for the variable t, so let us agree to use the elapsed time in seconds, starting with t = 0 at 8:05 A.M. and ending with t = 60 at 8:06 A.M. At each instant, the distance traveled (in ft) is equal to the speed of the car (in ft/s) multiplied by the elapsed time (in s). Thus, D(t) = 100t, 0 t 60 The graph of D versus t is shown in Figure 0.1.18. 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 Radar Tracking Time t (s)8:05 a.m. 8:06 a.m. DistanceD(ft) Figure 0.1.18 ISSUES OF SCALE AND UNITS In geometric problems where you want to preserve the true shape of a graph, you must use units of equal length on both axes. For example, if you graph a circle in a coordinate system in which 1 unit in the y-direction is smaller than 1 unit in the x-direction, then the circle will be squashed vertically into an elliptical shape (Figure 0.1.19). x y The circle is squashed because 1 unit on the y-axis has a smaller length than 1 unit on the x-axis. Figure 0.1.19 In applications where the variables on the two axes have unrelated units (say, centimeters on the y-axis and seconds on the x-axis), then nothing is gained by requiring the units to have equal lengths; choose the lengths to make the graph as clear as possible. However, sometimes it is inconvenient or impossible to display a graph using units of equal length. For example, consider the equation y = x2 If we want to show the portion of the graph over the interval 3 x 3, then there is no problem using units of equal length, since y only varies from 0 to 9 over that interval. However, if we want to show the portion of the graph over the interval 10 x 10, then there is a problem keeping the units equal in length, since the value of y varies between 0 and 100. In this case the only reasonable way to show all of the graph that occurs over the interval 10 x 10 is to compress the unit of length along the y-axis, as illustrated in Figure 0.1.20.

In this section we will discuss these operations and some others that have no analogs in ordinary arithmetic. ARITHMETIC OPERATIONS ON FUNCTIONS Two functions, f and g, can be added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided in a natural way to form new functions f + g, f g, fg, and f /g. For example, f + g is dened by the formula (f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) (1) which states that for each input the value of f + g is obtained by adding the values of f and g. Equation (1) provides a formula for f + g but does not say anything about the domain of f + g. However, for the right side of this equation to be dened, x must lie in the domains of both f and g, so we dene the domain of f + g to be the intersection of these two domains. More generally, we make the following denition.
